This book was released on 2015-09-10 with total page 535 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the devastation that follows a major disaster, there is a need for multiple sectors to unite and devote new resources to support the rebuilding of infrastructure, the provision of health and social services, the restoration of care delivery systems, and other critical recovery needs. In some cases, billions of dollars from public, private and charitable sources are invested to help communities recover. National rhetoric often characterizes these efforts as a "return to normal." But for many American communities, pre-disaster conditions are far from optimal. Large segments of the U.S. population suffer from preventable health problems, experience inequitable access to services, and rely on overburdened health systems. A return to pre-event conditions in such cases may be short-sighted given the high costs - both economic and social - of poor health. Instead, it is important to understand that the disaster recovery process offers a series of unique and valuable opportunities to improve on the status quo. Capitalizing on these opportunities can advance the long-term health, resilience, and sustainability of communities - thereby better preparing them for future challenges. Healthy, Resilient, and Sustainable Communities After Disasters identifies and recommends recovery practices and novel programs most likely to impact overall community public health and contribute to resiliency for future incidents. This book makes the case that disaster recovery should be guided by a healthy community vision, where health considerations are integrated into all aspects of recovery planning before and after a disaster, and funding streams are leveraged in a coordinated manner and applied to health improvement priorities in order to meet human recovery needs and create healthy built and natural environments. The conceptual framework presented in Healthy, Resilient, and Sustainable Communities After Disasters lays the groundwork to achieve this goal and provides operational guidance for multiple sectors involved in community planning and disaster recovery. Healthy, Resilient, and Sustainable Communities After Disasters calls for actions at multiple levels to facilitate recovery strategies that optimize community health. With a shared healthy community vision, strategic planning that prioritizes health, and coordinated implementation, disaster recovery can result in a communities that are healthier, more livable places for current and future generations to grow and thrive - communities that are better prepared for future adversities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the aftermath of presidentially declared disasters, Congress has used a variety of programs to help states and local governments finance recovery efforts, among them the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. Over the years, Congress has appropriated supplemental CDBG funds to assist states and communities recover from such natural disasters as hurricanes, earthquakes, and tornadoes. In addition, CDBG funds supported recovery efforts in New York City following the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001; in Oklahoma City following the bombing of the Alfred Murrah Building in 1995; and in the city and county of Los Angeles following the riots of 1992. In response to those calamities, CDBG funds were made available for short-term relief efforts, mitigation actions, and longterm recovery, and to provide housing and business assistance, infrastructure reconstruction, and public services. In December 2005, Congress provided $11.5 billion in CDBG assistance to the five states (Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas) affected by the Gulf Coast hurricanes of 2005. The funds were included in the Defense Appropriations Act for FY2006, P.L. 109-148 (119 Stat. 2779), and were designated to be used for "necessary expenses related to disaster relief, long-term recovery, and restoration of infrastructure in the most impacted and distressed areas." In June 2006, Congress appropriated an additional $5.2 billion in CDBG supplemental assistance as part of the Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act for Defense, the Global War on Terror, and Hurricane Recovery Act of 2006, P.L. 109-234, for Gulf Coast recovery activities. This additional appropriation brought the total amount of CDBG supplemental assistance for Gulf Coast recovery activities to $16.7 billion. It also included provisions that limit the amount states can use for administrative expenses to 5%; allow states to seek waivers of program requirements, except those related to fair housing, nondiscrimination, labor standards, and environmental review; sets aside $1 billion for housing rehabilitation and repair activities, including public and assisted housing; prohibits the use of funds for activities that are reimbursable by or made available by Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) or the Army Corp of Engineers; and require states to develop and HUD to approve state recovery plans that give priority in the use of funds for infrastructure development and rehabilitation and the development and rehabilitation of affordable rental housing As a condition for the receipt of CDBG disaster recovery assistance, both P.L. 109-148 and P.L. 109-234 require that each of the five Gulf Coast states report quarterly on all awards and use of funds to the House and Senate Appropriations Committees. The acts do not prescribe the form these quarterly reports are to take nor the content they are to include. This report will be updated as events warrant.
